Gossip: Pull out those jammies!

Posted: Wednesday, October 24, 2007

Because if you sleep in the buff, you might catch a cold.

In the who-decides-these-things-department: October is National Pajama Month.

There are still a few days left in October. So wear those flannel Sock-Monkey PJ's to work while you still have a legitimate excuse. Or celebrate by working at home in your nightgown. The-PR-people-who-link-months-to-celebrate goofy-things said it's OK.

October is also National Pork Month and National Cookie Month. Maybe for the sake of efficiency, it could be National Pork Cookie Month. Bacon flavored cookies. Yum.

October is also the month designated to focus the country's attention on something much less frivolous: It's breast cancer awareness month.

Kill two birds with one stone by purchasing Karen Neuburger's Pink Ribbon Signature Collection Waffle Pajamas ($70 at dillards.com). A portion of the sales of her Pink Ribbon collection go to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
